    Common pitfalls to avoid when writing a discursive

    One feedback i used to get from my teacher was to stop being persuasive in a discursive. Its okay to have a strong opinion about something, but exploring the other side can always be more insightful to the reader.

    Did you ever get a couple of bad marks in year 12 and end up graduating with a good ATAR?

    I had a friend who ranked third last in the grade for english after our first y12 english assessment. They ended up ranking 1st or 2nd by the end of trials. Smashed out a high band 6 as well.

    Mod 4 q

    You need energy to break bonds, so the system will absorb energy (thus endothermic). You release energy when bonds are formed (because when bonds form they have lower energy) thus exothermic.

    For polarity... (MOD 7)

    Given the molecule is symmetrical, I believe so. The net vector will be in the direction of the more electronegative element in a linear molecule for example.

    Trig yelp

    Here is an alternative way to do it :) Edit: the domain of x should b [0/pi/2]. Also, I have realised that this method is essentially what @Flise has done (their method is more concise as well!)

    background knowledge for projectile motion?

    Just have to be fluent with differentiation and integration. Also having a good understanding of parabolas (eg. where turning points occur, line of symmetry, etc) can be useful. I think with math however, it is more important to understand the content and use most of your time doing practice...

    Question for Graduated Students

    I would honestly go. If this is something you would like to go to, then go because you will probably end up regretting it. I graduated from high school last year and while I did try to take as many extra curricular activities involving sport, leadership, and volunteering, I kinda regret...

    School captain tip needed!!

    I would shy away from doing this. Though it may work at some schools, it could come back to bite you. It is just very unsportsmanlike and disrespectful (traits a school captains should definitely not posses). With that said, just make sure you are yourself and make sure your leadership...

    Chem help

Since the person rinsed the burette with water, acid gets diluted. So we have a lower concentration of acid then what we have noted. Step iii. The conical...
